When you're en route to a Presidents' Day weekend getaway: Broken Bells's "Holding On For Life" from After The Disco, drops Feb. 4

Throughout the two decades Beck has been blessing us with his creative genius, he’s never once been boring. That isn’t to say some of his introspective tracks won’t lull you into a peaceful rest, as if you were swaying in a hammock on a warm beach. Even when the lyrics are melancholy, his music is comforting. Immerse yourself in this dreamy, folksy tune, and let your cares float away.
